@andros@twtxt.andros.dev Reminds me of another low-code platform I came across that is written in Go, but uses Starlark I think as the DSL for writing apps.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev It’s a Cloud/SaaS thing right? 🤔🤔

Cancelled Mastodon because the time spent on it could have been used for reading books instead and the level of interaction is not enough to keep me interested.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev What is Streamlit? Link?

I am now using Streamlit at work to build admin interfaces and some internal application. It’s amazing! I recommend it

@doesnmppsflt@doesnm.p.psf.lt It looks like it… Although they shouldn’t be empty since Timeline took care of sending those. I believe I have an idea as to why that happened, but will have to test before filing an issue.

Morning 🥱

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org HAHA! A forever stable major release eh? That’s brilliant 😃 …

@doesnm.p.psf.lt@doesnm.p.psf.lt I don’t know if you have already noticed, but your Twtxt/Webmention script outputs Timestamps from the future 🤔 I wonder if Timeline’s does the same …

Noice!

I’ve been using nile, my alternative WM for #plan9, for over a decade now. I just made some additional improvements and finally gave it a web page: http://a.9srv.net/src/nile/

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Reminds me a bit of TeX which approaches pi by adding a digit with each bug fix in its version number. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TeX#TeX82

@movq@www.uninformativ.de @prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, you won’t be disappointed. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net This is fricking amazing, congratulations! :-) \o/

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Just watched this too! Not too bad 👌

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org That was great! 😃 Now I need to go back and watch the other videos by that guy. 😅

I am now fully off Cloudflare 🥳

So Go lang is at a funny version huh’ v1.23.4 will there ever be a v1.23.45678? 🫠🤡

@shreyan@twtxt.net Yeah the guy seems quite mad and hell bent on destroying his reputation and his project 🤦‍♂️

@shreyan@twtxt.net Hello! 👋 Welcome back! 🤗

@prologic@twtxt.net Extremely, this whole episode has been insane

Hello again, spent a long time inactive!

@@twtxt.net no. It is jest. Just like The Onion, but exclusively for a fictitious company. 😂

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Matt really is a fucking idiot 🤦‍♂️ Right? 🤔

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net Are these guys for realz? 🤔

Enron.com Announces Pre-Orders for Egg-Shaped Home Nuclear Reactor

That’s a well done mapping of computer time scale to human time scale: https://youtu.be/PpaQrzoDW2I Matt Godbolt is also a guy that I just enjoy listening to.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hmm yeah, you’re right. I should have checked for our location prior to getting too excited.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yeah, a sore neck is always a win. :-P Here’s nothing really to see, all cloudy. And also a bit cold at -2°C. I don’t feel like standing still all that long outside at the moment. :-D

Couldn’t see shi_, but enjoyed observing the moon light slipping trough the fast moving clouds! I’ll take that as a win 👍

WordPress.org Accounts Deactivated for Contributors Said to Be Planning a Fork - by Automattic CEO
WordPress co-creator (and Automattic CEO) Matt Mullenweg “has deactivated the accounts of several WordPress.org community members,” reports TechCrunch, “some of whom have been spearheading a push to create a new fork of the open source WordPress project.”

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org /Me throws his keyboard off to the side, grabs his camera just in case and runs upstairs screaming “Yeah! Science B_ !”

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Hmm, their illustration looks pretty optimistic. 🤔 When I look at it in Stellarium, the cluster around Saturn is pretty close to the Sun. Not sure you can see them. 🤔 Saturn is even closer to the Sun than Mercury – and Mercury is notoriously hard to observe.

But I hope I’m wrong!

January looks pretty interesting, too, btw.

Heck yeah, that’s really cool! Let’s hope for a clear sky: “On the evening of 28 February 2025, all seven of the other planets in the Solar System will appear in the night sky at the same time, with Saturn, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and Mars all lining up in a neat row – a magnificent sky feast for the eyes known as a great planetary alignment.” https://www.sciencealert.com/a-rare-alignment-of-7-planets-is-about-to-take-place-in-the-sky

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org 😂😂😂

Your code apparently works just fine. Until it @doesnm@doesnm.p.psf.lt’t. ;-) The shell languages are weird and having some strange properties that one is just not used to when coming from other languages.

Checked my posthook… looks like my bash skills at zero: https://doesnm.cc/huh.txt

Well, I stand corrected, pre-wrap even! https://git.mills.io/yarnsocial/yarn/pulls/1186

PSA: Yarnd operators might want to define code { white-space: pre } in their CSS themes to render things as they’re supposed to look like.

@andros@twtxt.andros.dev I love how this is coming together! :-)

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz To improve you shell programming skills, I highly recommend to check out shellcheck: https://github.com/koalaman/shellcheck It points out common errors and gives some suggestions on how to improve the code. Some details in shell scripting are very tricky to get right at first. Even after decades of shell programming, I run into “corner cases” every now and then.

E.g. in getlyr’s line 7 it warns:

echo -e $(gum style --italic --foreground "#f4b8e4" "'$artist', '$song'")
        ^-- SC2046: Quote this to prevent word splitting.

For more information:
  https://www.shellcheck.net/wiki/SC2046 -- Quote this to prevent word splitt...

Most likely not all that problematic in this application, but it’s good to know about this underlying concept. Word splitting is basically splitting tokens on whitespace, this can lead to interesting consequences as illustrated by this little code:

$ echo $(echo "Hello   World")
Hello World

$ echo "$(echo "Hello   World")" 
Hello   World

In the first case the shells sees two whitespace-separated tokens or arguments for the echo command. This basically becomes echo Hello World. So, echo joins them by a single space. In the second one it sees one argument for the echo command, so echo simply echos this single argument that contains three spaces.

@prologic@twtxt.net Oh yeah, that’s terrible, yuck! Let’s not do it then. :-)

@prologic@twtxt.net As written in IRC, several things turned me off. I don’t have the energy at the moment to wrestle through. :-(

After I stripped off my clothes and turned around, I came to the conclusion that the plan to shower was cancelled at this moment. The faucet had broken right off and was laying in the tub. I noticed that the diameters of the hot and cold water pipes were surprisingly small, didn’t expect that. Since the pipes were broken flush with the wall, I couldn’t even determine if I had to remove the inner our outer threads, well, remains thereof, in order to attempt to repair this mess. Luckily, I was going to see a plumber mate at the christmas tree collection later anyway.

The first thing that came to mind when I woke up was that I didn’t catch the logical flaw in my dream: absolutely no water was coming out of the burst pipes. The whole scenario took place in summer, so the water couldn’t be frozen either.

Finally my (web/txt)mention sender ready. Receiver i’m borrow from sorenpeter’s timeline

@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net And this is why I block all subnets of known “Ai Crawlers” 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

OpenAI’s Bot Crushes Seven-Person Company’s Website ‘Like a DDoS Attack’
